FOR WEEK OF OCTOBER 24
- This week in class we will begin reviewing the tissues of the skeleton--bone and cartilage--and the tissue that makes movement happen--muscle. We will also start looking at the mechanics of movement and how joints work. You can look ahead at those presentations [link] and also review Chapters 7-10 in your text.
- For Friday, some groups will have their second chat to go over rough drafts of your website reviews. Please be sure you read the instructions for the website reviews and have a fairly complete draft of your review posted on your blog [link for review instructions]. Be sure you save copies of your reviews on disk or on your computer in case something happens to your blog entries.
- Also, don't forget we have only two more weeks of class and then our next exam. It's not too soon to be working on reviewing for the exam and putting together your compendium notebook if you haven't begun already.
